The Most Lovable Dive Bars Around D.C. | Eater DC
"Adams Morgan’s cash-fueled fixture that lets customers mix their own drinks hasn’t messed with much since opening in 1965. Bartenders famously serve shots in squeeze bottles, floors are frequently sticky, and a DIY gin and tonic comes with a tall glass of gin, tiny tonic bottles, and ice bucket. The gloriously dingy dive was famously the unlikely site of a marriage proposal around Valentine’s Day 2023." - Tierney Plumb
